In addition to the Warner W. Plahs Wildflower Field (an awesome sight to behold in Spring), the nature trails abound with large turles, alligators sunning on the banks, red-winged blackbirds, waterfowl and frogs. There are wetland boardwalks, observation decks, bridges and fishing docks. The trails, which follow antebellum rice dikes built by hand around 1840, are open from sunrise to sunset. There are several ponds and four lakes, which are the largest open freshwater resources on the island.
Just a short cycle from Beach Lagoon, Calibogue Cay and South Beach, The Sea Pines Forest Preserve is a hiking, picnicking, wildlife-viewing and relaxing opportunity that you will certainly want to involve yourself—and your family—in.
